Choosing Faith Over Fear! | Renita Thomson

Choosing to send her kids to an inner-city failing school, choosing to leave her Western comforts for the carnage and danger of post-war Liberia, choosing to stay on in Ghana after her husband died… Renita has made a succession of bold faith-filled choices throughout her life, and God has used her to launch a movement of empowered businessfolk across twenty five nations (and counting). She is the founder and president at Discipling Marketplace Leaders, and what she shares is absolute gold.
